Fractions in Simplest Form Comparing Fractions Converting Between Improper Fractions and Whole/Mixed Numbers Operations with Fractions Click on the links below to jump directly to the relevant section Basic review Writing fractions in simplest form Comparing fractions Converting between Improper fractions and whole/mixed numbers Operations with fractions Basic Review Components of a Fraction A fraction is a number that is written in the form: or a/b • _a is the numerator and b is the denominator Fractions are used when representing numbers that describe the parts of a whole. The fraction a/b also can be read as "a out of b," "a over b," or "a divided by b." There are some restrictions on a and b. • _Both a and b must be integers, meaning positive and negative whole numbers. • _The denominator, or b, cannot be zero. This is because one cannot divide by zero. Often you will read information that could be represented as a fraction. Below is an example of this type of information. Example If there are 18 students in a classroom, and 6 of the students wear glasses, what fraction of the students wear glasses? A fraction can be thought of as "a out of b." In the following picture: • _The total number of students is 18. • _The number of students with glasses is 6. • _The number of students with glasses out of the whole class is 6/18 (or 1/3). Comparing Fractions with Like Denominators or Like Numerators Comparing fractions gives you a sense of how items relate. Let's take a look at some fractions and see how changing the numerator, and then the denominator, changes a fraction. Example In each of the diagrams below, the shaded part represents the fraction shown below each rectangle. The first rectangle has 1/1 (the whole rectangle) shaded. As you move down: • _The numerator (top) of each fraction remains the same, the integer 1. • _The denominator (bottom) increases. • _As the denominator gets larger, the shaded fraction gets smaller. The first rectangle has 1/8 shaded. As you move down: • _The numerator (top) of each fraction increases. • _The denominator (bottom) remains the same, the integer 8. • _As the numerator gets larger, the shaded fraction gets larger. We can draw the following conclusions: • _When the numerator stays the same, and the denominator increases, the value of the fraction decreases. • _When the denominator stays the same, and the numerator increases, the value of the fraction increases. Equivalent Fractions Equivalent fractions are fractions that may look different but are equal to each other. Two equivalent fractions may have a different numerator and a different denominator. Let's take a moment to demonstrate the concept of equivalent fractions. 1. Take a sheet of paper and fold it twice, creating three equal sections. 2. Now shade two of them. This shaded portion represents 2/3. 3. Fold the paper again, in the other direction, but down the center of the paper. The shaded portion is now 4/6. The shaded portion of the paper does not change, so the fraction of the paper shaded does not change. The fractions 2/3 and 4/6 are equivalent. If you multiply both the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same non-zero number, the fraction remains unchanged in value. Therefore, equivalent fractions can be created by multiplying (or dividing) the numerator and denominator by the same number. This number is referred to as a multiplier. In the demonstration above, we could get the fraction 4/6 by multiplying both the top and bottom of 2/3 by 2. Example Show that the fraction 8/12 is equivalent to the fraction 2/3. If you multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 4, you get the fraction 8/12. Therefore, the two are equivalent. Likewise, if you divide both the numerator and denominator of 8/12 by 4, you get the fraction 2/3. Therefore, the two are equivalent. Writing Fractions in Simplest Form Fractions can be simplified when the numerator and denominator have a common factor in them. If both the numerator and denominator have common factors, then we can cancel these factors out. For example, in the fraction 8/12, 4 is a common factor of both 8 and 12. We can simplify the fraction by canceling the 4 from both the numerator and denominator of the fraction. Canceling is equivalent to dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same number. The key to simplifying a fraction is to find all the common factors between the numerator and denominator and to eliminate them. The easiest way to be sure you have eliminated all the common factors of the numerator and denominator is to find the prime factors of each and then cancel them out. Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic Every composite number can be expressed as a product of prime numbers. These are referred to as prime factors. • _A factor of a number is a number that can be divided into the original number evenly (meaning there is no remainder). For example, 4 is a factor of 8. That means 8 can be divided by 4 and there is no remainder (8 ÷ 4 = 2). This means that 2 is also a factor of 8. • _A prime number is a number that has only two factors, 1 and itself. For example, the number 2 can be divided evenly only by itself and 1. Therefore, 2 is a prime number. The five smallest prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13. • _Numbers that are not prime numbers are referred to as composite numbers. The number 8 is a composite number since it has factors of 2 and 4 (and 1). • _1 is a factor of every number. To find the prime factors of a composite number, divide out prime numbers. For example, if we wish to find the prime factors of 24, we can start by dividing 24 by 2: When we divide 24 by 2 we get a result of 12. Since 2 goes into 24 evenly, it is a factor of 24. 2 is also a prime factor since it can only be divided by itself and 1. Therefore, 24 has 2 as a prime factor and 12 as a composite factor. If we want to find all the prime factors of 24, we must continue by finding the factors of 12. We can also divide 12 by 2. When we do this we find that 2 and 6 are factors of 12, with 6 being another composite factor. When we further divide 6 by 2 we get a result of 3. Finally, we have a result that is a prime number. Both 2 and 3 are prime factors of 6. Now we can look at our sequence of division and list all the prime factors of 24. To review our sequence of division we have: When we report the prime factors of 24, we must list each occurrence of a number. From this we can see that 2, 2, 2, and 3 are all the prime factors of 24. A number can be written as the product of its prime factors, so 2 x 2 x 2 x 3= 24. To simplify a fraction, follow four steps: 1. Write the prime factorization of both the numerator and denominator. (The process for finding prime factors was explained above). 2. Rewrite the fraction so that the numerator and denominator are written as the product of their prime factors. 3. Cancel out any common prime factors. 4. Multiply together any remaining factors in the numerator and denominator. Example Find the simplest form of the fraction 10/24. 1. Write the prime factorization of both the numerator and denominator. • _The prime factors of 10 are 2 and 5. • _The prime factors of 24 are 2, 2, 2, and 3. 2. Rewrite the fraction so that the numerator and denominator are written as the product of their prime factors. 3. Cancel out any common prime factors. We can cancel out a 2 from both the numerator and the denominator. 4. Multiply together any remaining factors in the numerator and denominator. The fraction 10/24 can be simplified to 5/12. As we can see, finding prime factors is important for simplifying fractions. Once we find the prime factors, it is merely a matter of canceling out common prime factors. Comparing Fractions Review of Notation x is greater than x > y x is greater than y x > y or equal to y x is less than or x < y x is less than y x < y equal to y Comparing fractions when the denominators are the same When the denominators are the same, comparing fractions is easy. We simply compare the numerators. For example, ¾ > ¼ because 3 > 1. Comparing fractions when the denominators are different To compare fractions that have different denominators, convert them all to a set of fractions that have the same denominator. There are three steps to comparing fractions when the denominators are different. 1. Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) for the group of fractions you are comparing. 2. Find the multiplier for each fraction. Multiply both the top and bottom of each fraction by that multiplier. The example below will detail how this is done. 3. Compare and order the numerators of each fraction. Determine which is larger: 10/24 or 22/45. 1. Find the LCD for the group of fractions you are comparing. When denominators are different, you can use equivalent fractions as a tool to create new fractions with the same denominator. This will make them easy to compare. This new denominator is called the least common denominator (LCD).

  • Solve by Rewriting the Expression in Fraction Form. After Solving, Rewrite the Complete Number Sentence in Decimal Form
    GRADE 4 | MODULE 6 | TOPIC D | LESSONS 12–14 KEY CONCEPT OVERVIEW In Lessons 12 through 14, students add decimals by converting decimal numbers to fraction form before adding and then converting the sum back to a decimal number. (See Sample Problem.) It is important to note that, in these lessons, students do NOT learn to add decimals by lining up the decimal points. You can expect to see homework that asks your child to do the following: ▪ Express tenths and hundredths as hundredths (e.g., 3 tenths + 4 hundredths = 34 hundredths). ▪ Add tenths and hundredths by converting tenths to hundredths before finding the sum. ▪ Add mixed numbers with units of ones, tenths, and hundredths. ▪ Solve word problems requiring the addition of numbers written in decimal form, converting to fraction form before solving. SAMPLE PROBLEM (From Lesson 13) Solve by rewriting the expression in fraction form. After solving, rewrite the complete number sentence in decimal form. 5.9 + 4.94 9 94 90 94 184 84 59..++=4945=++=4 =+5 +=4 ==9 = 10 10 100 100 100 100 100 5.9 + 4.94 = 10.84 Additional sample problems with detailed answer steps are found in the Eureka Math Homework Helpers books.

  • Ground and Explanation in Mathematics

Such “math- ematical explanation” is presumably not a variety of causal explana- tion. In addition, the role of metaphysical grounding as underwriting a variety of explanations has also recently received increased attention Ground and Explanation (Correia and Schnieder 2012; Fine 2001, 2012; Rosen 2010; Schaffer 2016). Accordingly, it is natural to wonder whether mathematical ex- planation is a variety of grounding explanation. This paper will offer several arguments that it is not. in Mathematics One obstacle facing these arguments is that there is currently no widely accepted account of either mathematical explanation or grounding. In the case of mathematical explanation, I will try to avoid this obstacle by appealing to examples of proofs that mathematicians themselves have characterized as explanatory (or as non-explanatory). I will offer many examples to avoid making my argument too dependent on any single one of them. I will also try to motivate these characterizations of various proofs as (non-) explanatory by proposing an account of what makes a proof explanatory. In the case of grounding, I will try to stick with features of grounding that are relatively uncontroversial among grounding theorists. But I will also Marc Lange look briefly at how some of my arguments would fare under alternative views of grounding. I hope at least to reveal something about what University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill grounding would have to look like in order for a theorem’s grounds to mathematically explain why that theorem obtains.

    Section 1.8: Operations with Fractions, Decimals and Percent Chapter 1: Introduction to Algebra Multiply decimals Step 1. Determine the sign of the product. Step 2. Write in vertical format, lining up the numbers on the right. Multiply the numbers as if they were whole numbers, temporarily ignoring the decimal points. Step 3. Place the decimal point. The number of decimal places in the product is the sum of the number of decimal places in the factors. Step 4. Write the product with the appropriate sign. For Example: Section 1.8: Operations with Fractions, Decimals and Percent Chapter 1: Introduction to Algebra Multiplication by powers of 10 Section 1.8: Operations with Fractions, Decimals and Percent Chapter 1: Introduction to Algebra Divide decimals Step 1. Determine the sign of the quotient. Step 2. Make the divisor a whole number by “moving” the decimal point all the way to the right. “Move” the decimal point in the dividend the same number of places—adding zeros as needed. Step 3. Divide. Place the decimal point in the quotient above the decimal point in the dividend. Step 4. Write the quotient with the appropriate sign. Remember these terms for division: For Example: Section 1.8: Operations with Fractions, Decimals and Percent Chapter 1: Introduction to Algebra A percent is a ratio whose denominator is 100.

  • 8Ratio and Percentages
    8 Ratio and percentages 1 Ratio A ratio is a comparison of two numbers. We generally separate the two numbers in the ratio with a colon (:) or as a fraction. Suppose we want to write the ratio of 8 and 12. We can write this as 8:12 or as 8/12, and we say the ratio is eight to twelve . Examples: Janet has a bag with 4 pens, 3 sweets, 7 books, and 2 sandwiches. 1. What is the ratio of books to pens? Expressed as a fraction, the answer would be 7/4. Two other ways of writing the ratio are 7 to 4, and 7:4. 2. What is the ratio of sweets to the total number of items in the bag? There are 3 candies, and 4 + 3 + 7 + 2 = 16 items total. The answer can be expressed as 3/16, 3 to 16, or 3:16. 2 Comparing Ratios To compare ratios, write them as fractions. The ratios are equal if they are equal when written as fractions. We can find ratios equivalent to other ratios by multiplying/ dividing both sides by the same number. Example: Are the ratios 2 to 7 and 4:14 equal? The ratios are equal because 2/7 = 4/14. The process of finding the simplest form of a ratio is the same as the process of finding the simplest form of a fraction. 1 : 3.5 or 2 : 7 could be given as more simple forms of the ratio 4 : 14. 1 I.E.S. “Andrés de Vandelvira” Sección Europea Mathematics Exercise 1 Simplify the following ratios: 3:6 25:50 40:100 9:21 11:121 For some purposes the best is to reduce the numbers to the form 1 : n or n : 1 by dividing both numbers by either the left hand side or the right-hand side number.
